`weights` parameter is not used to calculate observed population size #24

Closed BERENZ closed 2 years ago

BERENZ commented 2 years ago

Imagine we have an aggregated dataset where each row corresponds to two observations in the whole dataset. This is denoted by rep.int(2, nrow(farmsubmission))

ModelPo <- estimate_popsize(formula = TOTAL_SUB ~ .,
                            data = farmsubmission,
                            pop.var = "analytic",
                            model = "ztpoisson",
                            method = "mle", 
                            weights = rep.int(2, nrow(farmsubmission)))

so the observed population should be sum(nrow(farmsubmission)* weights) = 24072 but it is not included included in the output

Observed proportion: 65.6% (N obs = 12036)
